Tony Solomon needed a change. Even though he’s ranked in the top 2 percent of commercial real estate agents for most of his career and has won just about every top production award his former brokerage had to offer – Solomon felt like something was missing. So he reached out to KW Commercial to see how the division might satisfy his craving for culture and growth.

We want to hear from you!
“As a single mom of three teenage boys, every cent counts. I went without health insurance for years and then, through my employer, I was paying $200 a month for ‘just ok’ coverage. I had no prescription help and high deductibles and it was continuing to go up. I often questioned whether it was worth it. I was also very worried about getting injured and not being able to work but could not find an acceptable disability policy. Then I moved to Little Rock and joined Keller Williams! I now have health, dental, vision and disability for the same amount of money!! With three teenage boys, one less thing to worry about is a blessing!”
